Warm soft chocolaty cookies! LOVE! Bobby, my mom AND my dad are peanut butter fanatics! So i decided to make this yummy treat especially for them.
Bobby got me this book for our anniversary called The Golden Book of CHOCOLATE; its literally like 700 pages and its truly a chocolate bible. Everything in this book has chocolate incorporated in the recipe some how. Ive been thinking on making every recipe in this book but i think way too highly about being healthy and not being an obese lady; even though the process may be amazing the end result wont be something to look forward to. So much to my dismay, ill make them a little at a time and probably not every single one.
This recipe makes a batch of about 16 cookies.
Ingredients:
- 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup butter; softened
- 1/2 cup raw sugar
- 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 4 oz semisweet (dark) chocolate; coarsely chopped
Preparations:
Preheat the oven to 375°F.
Butter a baking sheet.
Mix the flour, baking soda and salt in a bowl.
Beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on high speed until creamy.
Beat in the peanut butter.
Add the vanilla and egg to the wet mixture just until blended.
With the mixer on low speed, add in dry mixture a little at a time, followed by the chocolate.
Shape into small balls and place 2 inches apart on baking sheet.
Bake until just golden at the edges, 10-12 minutes.
Cool on baking sheet till cookies firm slightly, about 5 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
These cookies came out so delicious. So soft and peanut buttery, a new favorite type of cookie. The raw sugar creates like a crunchiness but not a hard crunch just a little texture. It was really good. Perfect cookie for a tall glass of milk.. Enjoy!
